Puppies are cute and cuddly. They are also energetic and playful. They love to be around people and they want to please their masters. So it’s natural that a puppy will want to do things like chew shoes, tear up furniture, dig holes in the yard and run loose in the neighborhood.
But as puppies get older, they become more independent and start to develop their own personality. Some dogs may have a lot of energy and can’t sit still while others may be very calm and laid back. The key is to find out what your puppy’s personality is so that you know how to properly train him or her.
The first thing to remember is that training is not about punishment. Punishment is only going to make your puppy more resistant to training. You want to find a way to reward your puppy with good behavior.
Puppies need to learn that there are consequences for bad behavior. When you begin training your puppy, make sure you always give praise when he does something right. You can use treats to help reinforce good behavior. If your puppy gets too excited and starts chewing, then put him down for a little bit until he calms down.
The next step is to teach your puppy basic commands. It’s important that you start early. Puppies don’t know any better so it’s important that you establish good habits early on. This means that you should teach your puppy to come when you call his name, stay when you tell him to, and sit when you tell him to.
As your puppy grows older, you will need to teach him new commands. For example, if you want your puppy to lie down, you’ll need to teach him to do so. Don’t just expect your puppy to know how to lay down. Make sure you teach him to lay down.
There are a number of ways to teach your puppy new commands. One of the easiest ways is by using a clicker. A clicker is a device that makes a sound when you press a button. By clicking the clicker and saying the command at the same time, you can teach your puppy to understand what you mean.
Another way to teach your puppy is through a treat. When you want your puppy to sit, place a treat in front of him and click when he sits. You can also click and say the command at the same time to teach your puppy that sitting means getting a treat.
If your puppy is having trouble learning new commands, you can try playing a game. Play fetch with your puppy and click when he brings the ball back. This will help him understand that he must bring the ball back to you.
You can also play tug-of-war with your puppy. Place a toy in the middle of the room and let your puppy pull it. As he pulls the toy, click and say the command. This will help him understand what it means to tug the toy.
These are just a few tips on how to train your puppy. Remember that you need to find a way to reward good behavior and avoid punishing bad behavior. Also remember that training your puppy is not about punishment.
